Overall I've been quite pleased with Bungie's latest product: Destiny. The gameplay is solid and the universe (even though it is still in its infancy) is already feeling very complete. However, one issue I have found is with the exotic weapon bounties. Right now I have the "Thorn" bounty active. Doing missions on heroic difficulty or killing endless enemies on the moon is certainly no issue, but the current objective it gives me is "use void damage to defeat guardians in the crucible. Death will slow your progress." That last bit is potentially the greatest understatement I've seen in a game to date. I've played halo, fear, l4d, cod etc. all of the classics and been ranked pretty decently in all at some point. Destiny's crucible favors the grinder to begin with, but to boot when faced with a challenge, they disencourage the less skillful with punishing crucible deaths. Let me make this clear again HAVING A NEGATIVE K/D IN CRUCIBLE WILL DISALLOW PROGRESS ON THE THORN BOUNTY. If anyone has thoughts on this or better ways (Other than being a lvl 28 warlock) to complete this bounty, please let me know. Thanks.

Give me $20 and I'll do it for you. Each bounty follows the same trend. Dominate in PvE, Dominate in PvP and you will be rewarded. Exotics are a feat of strength, get used to both
